Are VIM and Emacs just memes?
Do professional programmers actually use them or is it just wannabe coders who think writing code in a terminal makes them feel like a "pro hacker"?
I don't understand why someone would want to use a terminal text editor over an actual IDE designed for programming with mouse support.
Do professional programmers actually use them?
Is navigating through code with a bunch of keystrokes actually any faster?
What about all the debugging and other extra features IDEs can provide that these text editors lack?

Don't think so

No

Pros do use them. It's just that the entry to them can be tedious to learn.
>I don't understand why someone would want to use a terminal text editor over an actual IDE designed for programming with mouse support.
Emacs has a graphical display you could call an IDE. Gvim also has an IDE.
>Is navigating through code with a bunch of keystrokes actually any faster?
Hell yes.
>What about all the debugging and other extra features IDEs can provide that these text editors lack?
Emacs has a plethora of debugging features. It's practically it's own OS. Not sure about vim.
>>55270023
It depends a lot on the langauge.
For many languages outside th big IDE C++/C#/Java, emacs/vim are your best IDE.
Most of those features, especially debugging, they can do quite well.
Mainly just refactoring they tend to be weak in.
And if you aren't in a windows shop, then no VS for C++.
So yes, a good chunk uses them exclusively, the other good chunk only occasionally needs to open up vim or emacs.
Then a small chunk uses sublime or nano or atom or some shit.
No professional programmer doesn't regularly use some text editor, IDEs don't cover everything.

curry niggers really are nigger tier incompetent. the only difference is that niggers are arrogant and sassy while curry niggers pretend to be polite.
Will this browser ever get good again? I'm using it right now, and it's just sluggish. the catalog of a board takes like 30 seconds to fully load
That's most certainly a problem on your end.
On first load ~10s, now it loads even faster.
Also i reckon my local cloudflare node is in stockholm and i am in helsinki.

Hey, I'm bored of my day-job and in the mood to write a website in C++. (Obviously still just serving html/css/js to the end user, but all processing will be done in C++). At the moment I've got no idea what to write. Anyone care to bounce some ideas off of me?
Tools / libraries / etc. I plan on using for the project: C++14 (17?) via GCC, debian 64-bit, fastcgi, nginx, postgresql, and libpqxx. Scrypt and Let's Encrypt if I start to take the project seriously and need some password hashing / SSL, respectively. I'll use Boost if I come to need it, but I'll avoid it if I can.
Also, if you just want to shit on C++, I guess you can do that here. I enjoy the language, but that's just me and my cup of tea.

Why not write an browser extension that allows the server to send c++, then it's executed client side?

anyone fucked around with one of these?
seems pretty simple but i feel like im overlooking something can heat be a problem?
windows should be able to turn the thing off right?
>>55269839
Yeah, I have one for emergencies so that I can access my files on my laptop if my desktop breaks somehow.
>windows should be able to turn the thing off right?
When turn it on it powers up the drive and it spins constantly as far as I can remember.
Why would you need to use it for prolonged periods anyway? They're only really useful for data recovery or for cloning drives. If you need to have an extra drive connected to your computer constantly, just plug it into the motherboard like your other drives.
I have one and it has a physical power button. Heat is not a problem. What are you afraid of?
>can heat be a problem
just make sure to leave it on for no less than 3 minutes on medium heat. you can use the time to get your butter/jam/marmalade ready.

I recently purchased 2 GTX 1080's and I need to know which slot spacing SLI bridge I need that would best accommodate this motherboard: Asus X99 A - II (see pic)
This is the diagram they provided for slot spacing, and I'm more or less clueless. (at bottom of page)

Hey guys. Do you like my new GTX 1080 FE?
Is that a remaster of the donkervoot? I've heard nothing about this. Is it released? I'll have to go talk to my bank about trading in my current 2012 model for it.
I bought a top of the line late 2013 MBP model.
>16GB of 1600MHz DDR3L onboard memory

What are you, poor?
Just buy the new one.
If you could afford a mac, you can surely afford a replacement without selling your assets to do it.
>>55269750
Good point anon.
I've got the same one with same specs and there is really no reason to upgrade right now. The CPU is more powerful than the one in my gaymen rig. I use my rmbp for strictly productivity and my other computers for bullshitting around.

No one cares about your physical inadequacies Barbara. You were given the shit 5’2 manlet genes of life. Sac up and learn to use a man’s phone.

Not even the Sony Z Ultra Bezels can compete since its phablet size reaches the threshold into retard realm.
